Hollywood Heralds the Next Big Thing in Sunless Tanning

13 February 2003

As the spa beauty market continually searches for the ultimate tanning treatment å- claims are that this could this be one. According to beauty aficionados, the word on everyoneå‘s lips is Au Courant. A new product created for Hollywood that appears to have it allå...

Firming, anti-ageing, sunless tanning is the successful formula behind Au Courant, and the company claims that it creates the most natural looking, longest-lasting tan, whilst treating the skin to French botanicals and firming anti-ageing vitamins, which ultimately leaves skin soft, supple and beautifully tanned.

It was developed by leading Hollywood make-up artist, Susan Horrell, in response to requests from her celebrity clients, who they say, can’t live without it - apparently Christina Aguillera orders 20 bottles at a time. Other famous fans include; Gynneth Paltrow, Elle McPherson, Jennifer Aniston, Ethan Hawke, Renee Zellweger, Cameron Diaz, Catherine Zeta Jones and Tea Leone, together with numerous international model agencies.

The revolutionary anti-ageing self tanning products have been designed to create a natural looking tan while they firm, renew and tone the skin. Au Courant has a built in bronzer that works as a guide while the active ingredients react with the melanin in the skin. A deep tan surfaces within around six hours and this effect fades like a real tan in five to seven days.

The Aloe-Vera based formulation is streak free, non-greasy and quick drying. The range contains a synergy of French botanicals of Safflower, Chamomile, Rosemary, Orange Peel, Panthenol, skin renewing AHA’s, Pro-vitamin B5 and vitamins A, C and E. It also smells delicious.Products within the range are available as a Water-based Spray, Bronzing Lotion, Firming Facial Gel Bronzer and Whipped Bronze Mousse. Clients can choose from clear (no colour guide), medium, dark, and sensitive. The formulations can be applied with either latex gloves or an Au Courant sponge.
